Hydrogen Isotope Ratios of Mouse Tissues are Influenced by a Variety of Factors Other than Diet
Chicago
Abstract
In a recent report, Estep and Dabrowski (I) presented data which they claimed defined the relationship between the stable hydrogen isotopic ratios of an animal's tissues and those of its food and water sources. On the basis of their interpretation of these data, they suggested that the isotopic composition of animal hydrogen records information about an animal's diet. We wish to comment on their report.
